Excellent balanced cocktails. Food is good too, a bit on the greasy side but excellent proportions. I appreciate the extra mushrooms and onions in the house potatoes.

I held a small event there. We had their brunch. Everyone in my party of 25 loved the food, the cocktails and had zero complaints about the staff. Their favorite dish were the tacos. We had steak and carnitas. The cost was extremely affordable for the quality of food, space and great service we received. Also making the arrangements were very simple and they really worked within my budget. I highly recommend stopping in for a bite and sangria!

Very good food and service.
Can get a little noisy and a bit pricey
The items are billed separately as extras so be careful when ordering ask server about what is or isn’t included.

Came here for Oakland Restaurant week, was underwhelmed. While there were some good bites amongst the many we shared, this left me craving more traditional authentic dishes with more flavor. The lamb tongue and crab taquitos were pretty tasty, but everything else was pretty forgettable.

I really enjoyed their cocktails such as Hibiscus Margarita and Desert Rose, but I thought the raw oyster is a bit overpriced, even for happy hours.

This is hands down the best Mexican restaurant my wife and I have been to, we stumbled upon this place for our 2 year anniversary and the tacos, and cocktails were so delicious. It has become our anniversary outing spot! Will be coming back here for them tacos!

My girlfriend and I went here for our anniversary during Oakland Restaurant Week 2024 and it was amazing! Everything was delicious and our waiter was great and the manager was so kind and helpful. Will definitely be coming back again (and again)!

Bar Cesar is nice local neighborhood spot with good food and nice selection of tequila. It's a spot where, after driving for hours on a rainy night and getting drenched after parking your car, you walk in at 832 pm and though they are open until 9pm, they tell you the kitchen is closed and they kick you out. When you ask when did the kitchen close they say 830. Two minutes ago. A neighborhoody spot has to be warm, inviting, and dependable. This place is not that. So I walked back into the rain and gave my money to Doña, which is now my go-to neighborhood spot. They keep their kitchen open until posted ours, in this case 9pm.
